August 4, 201114 yr Jason, thx for all the great pix! Love the picture with the other Coldplayers (at least I think they are CPers :) ) The gadgets you got look absolutely awesome!
August 4, 201114 yr I got home around 40 minutes ago...I'm very happy right now, but it's very late now so I will post a coherent review tomorrow with all the details. I met Phil though!!!! :phil: :dance: Okay more tomorrow. :D
August 4, 201114 yr thanks for the photos Jason! :D My pleasure. By the way, anyone can reuse any of the pics I've taken as you'd like. Trying to upload some videos, but hotel internet is super S L O W... Will probably take all night to put one up. Got GPASUYF and Politik in their entirety. Politik came out especially good as I zoomed in on the different members are different bits (like will pounding the hell out of his set). Also video'd some other bits. Awesome show - can never get enough CP live. Was great to meet some more Coldplaying members and hang out and chat, and some of us got together for dinner after the show. Great fun! Thanks for the best online forum out there, busybeeburns! ;) Really makes for a better experience when you can connect up with a lot of wonderful people. Jason
August 4, 201114 yr jason is there a sight where you will post at the pics? u have awesome ones. i want to "steal" them all. :)
August 4, 201114 yr Imelda! Coldplay karma was on your side, I read u met phil! :D and I saw you wore both the necklace and bracelet awww :) guess they are good luck, I better not forget mine :D
August 4, 201114 yr I'm Erick. i'll do a review tmr as well. here's the pic of me and Will!!Awesome pic! Can't wait to read your review :)
August 4, 201114 yr Very awesome time. My notes: *Super friendly event staff * The free samsung game prizes were a nice touch *Kinda dead audience. Sitting or standing, you can at least SWAY or rock back and fourth/stomp * Saw the guys walk right in front of me from inside the VIP area outside to an adjacent building * The Winehouse tribute really struck a chord with me, and if you heard the guy scream "AMY", that was me * On top of the amazing performing of the guys, the lighting and use of color was fun * ETIAW is a perfect summer concert song
August 4, 201114 yr I'm Erick. i'll do a review tmr as well. here's the pic of me and Will!! Great pic! Congrats!
August 4, 201114 yr Wow...just got home and I must say, that was awesome!! Got a setlist and several pocketfuls of confetti. It was a great concert. I loved that the venue was so small but people weren't really singing out that much, and I was kinda dissapointed that they played Charlie Brown and ETiaW twice and skipped like three other songs, but I don't think it was the band's idea, since they did play Everything's Not Lost and that wasn't on the official setlist. The band sounded really good but Chris didn't do much crazy stuff...there was no laying on the floor and he only asked if everyone was OK once. They were probably pretty jet lagged. Even so it was totally worth it. They are an amazing live band. setlist: MX/HLH Yellow In My Place Charlie Brown ETiaW The Scientist Major Minus GPaSuYF Everything's Not Lost Us Against the World Politik Viva la Vida Charlie Brown (2nd time) Life is for Living (encore) Clocks Amy Winehouse tribute Fix You ETiaW (2nd time)

August 4, 201114 yr Kate Bosworth went *sits back and waits for the affair rumours to resurface* http://www.ok.co.uk/fashion/view/38010/Kate-Bosworth-demonstrates-how-to-dress-badly-but-still-get-a-hot-date-/That blouse she's wearing is hidious! What was she thinking...
August 4, 201114 yr Watched Jimmy and it was a funny show. Chris interviewed with Jimmy at the beginning was funny too. Chris was charming and hilarious. My favorite line was "Will worked for Fedex and the rest of us opened a pet store" LMAO
August 4, 201114 yr Does anybody else think that those 4 rectangles at the end of ETIAW might be LP5 artwork? http://www.4shared.com/photo/usadhYox/artwork.html?

August 4, 201114 yr Does anybody else think that those 4 rectangles at the end of ETIAW might be LP5 artwork? http://www.4shared.com/photo/usadhYox/artwork.html? Yeah yeah yeah... I still wondering what this means. But don't think that this will be the artwork. I thought of something which is more chaotic and fits better to the graffiti theme.
August 4, 201114 yr Fun night. The good: Meeting several Coldplayers, Tracey (duh - she stayed with me.) Kelly, Imelda, Julie, Jason, Ro, Heide. Missed finding Erick, but kept in touch by text. Watching two songs soundcheck Seeing Miller, and other roadies we recognized Seeing Jimmy Kimmel walking through the tunnel where we saw the band Being in the right place at the right time, and seeing the band walk right past us, on the way to and from meeting with the Grammy Foundation people. Made eye contact with Will, got a huge smile from Jonny and a wave from Chris Watching my husband come out of the men's room, saying, "Guy was in there." The gorgeous night. The bad: The crowd sucked. A few got into it, but for the most part, people just stood there, sat down or talked or texted. Especially the people behind me, who sat and talked the whole show, standing only for Viva. Chris did very little talking. Didn't seem like he did the usual band shoutouts like he usually does, either. There were a LOT of empty seats. Our $150 seats were horrible :(. Totally obstructed view. We ended up having a few extra free tickets, and sold them. We kept our bought tickets, thinking the location was good. They were close but our view was totally blocked by the speaker tower and Samsung banner. Great view of Will, but didn't see Guy or Jonny at all. Chris moves around so we got glimpses of him. There was a video screen but the image was reversed, kind of disconcerting to see Jonny playing "left handed." My daughter's seats were next to Kelly's, farther back, but better view, so Tracey squeezed in with them, in the bench seating. Other sections were noted on Ticketmaster as having obstructed views, and the price reflected that, but not Sec 2. So I was very disappointed by that. But it was a fun night. I need to go through my pictures and see if there are any decent ones to share.
August 4, 201114 yr I agree about the crowd! I was going to come on here to talk about that today as well...I felt like it made LA looked so bad :( I thought it was horrible how nobody cheered for Will when he started his part during Us Against The World! I sat right in front of your son Dianne :) Fun night. The good: Meeting several Coldplayers, Tracey (duh - she stayed with me.) Kelly, Imelda, Julie, Jason, Ro, Heide.
